I'm a home and away Coventry City supporter living in Hampshire and in 2014 after watching yet another marathon on the tv I decided to achieve a lifelong dream of running the London Marathon - https://www.virginmoneylondonmarathon.com/en-gb/
I was supposed to run this in 2015 however, in the January I was struck down with a 2nd Stress Fracture in 18 months caused from impact and weakness in my bones due to having Osteopenia and was unable to run again for 6 months. This second fracture lead to a number of investigations (and life changes) into preventing this injury occurring again (which isn’t a given) but the recovery wasn't as fast as I'd hoped, so I had no choice but to pull out. The charity could not have been more supportive and gave me another opportunity to run in 2016 so I'd like to raise further funds for Prostate Cancer Research Centre.
